Beautifully decorated with a blend of contemporary and classic styling, this listed retreat offers an exceptional base for getaways in the South Lakes. Located in Broughton-in-Furness – an undisturbed, quirky little town with fell walks and long, rewarding hikes on its doorstep – it’s a place where you can fully embrace the slow, laid-back nature of a rural Lake District stay. The town is home to a handful of country pubs and independently owned businesses, while the property itself accommodates up to six guests in delightful surroundings, offering space to rest and recharge both inside and out.
The lovely property, once a stables and artist's studio, features large rooms, high ceilings, and plenty of natural light throughout. On the lower ground floor, an open-plan kitchen and dining area await – an effortlessly stylish space with clean-lined décor and modern minimalism, perfect for gathering at mealtimes. The ground floor houses a supremely comfortable lounge with plush sofas, a wood burner, and a Smart TV. Across the lower, ground, and first floors, you’ll find a bedroom on each level, each with its own en-suite bathroom. Outside, a suntrap courtyard is enclosed by mature flora and shrubs, complete with patio seating for relaxing with a drink outdoors. Parking for one car on the road at the side of the property.
Lace up your walking boots and head wherever your feet take you – ideally after fuelling up with a delicious bake from the family-run bakery just a few metres away. The Broughton Railway Path offers an easy-to-follow route along a disused railway line, showcasing some of the verdant beauty that surrounds the town. You’ve also got the Duddon Valley (2.5 miles) nearby, with fells, forests, awe-inspiring views, and birdlife soaring overhead. On a clear day, keep an eye out for buzzards or even the rare peregrine falcon. More wildlife and stunning scenery await on the edge of Coniston Water, just 8 miles away.
